''Brycon'' is a genus of fish from the family Characidae. Despite being unrelated to true trout, they are sometimes called South American trout. They reach a maximum length of depending on the species involved, and the largest are among the largest species in the Characidae family. They are found widely in freshwater habitats in the Neotropics, ranging from southern Mexico to northern Argentina. Some species play a role in seed dispersal, and are able to jump out of the water to "pluck" low-hanging fruit directly from trees.〔 ==Species== The 43 currently recognized species in this genus are:〔 * ''Brycon alburnus'' (Günther, 1860) * ''Brycon amazonicus'' (Spix & Agassiz, 1829) (matrinxã) * ''Brycon argenteus'' Meek & Hildebrand, 1913 * ''Brycon atrocaudatus'' (Kner, 1863) * ''Brycon behreae'' Hildebrand, 1938 * ''Brycon bicolor'' Pellegrin, 1909 * ''Brycon cephalus'' (Günther, 1869) * ''Brycon chagrensis'' (Kner, 1863) * ''Brycon coquenani'' Steindachner, 1915 * ''Brycon costaricensis'' Angulo & Gracian-Negrete, 2013〔Angulo, A. & Gracian-Negrete, J.M.
